From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Mike McCarty Subject: Working copy now fails to run... (long) Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2005 12:17:54 -0500 Message-ID: <434FE842.6000802@sbcglobal.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Sender: linux-msdos-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format="flowed" To: linux-msdos@vger.kernel.org I installed a copy of dosemu 1.2.2 several months ago, and it has worked well for me. I haven't used it in a few weeks, and today I fired it up. Well, it doesn't run properly anymore. Here's my setup: $ which dosemu ~/bin/dosemu $ cat ~/bin/dosemu cd ~/bin/dosemudir/dosemu ./xdosemu & $ ls /home/jmccarty/bin/dosemudir/dosemu bin COPYING FDchange.log README.bindist Xfonts conf dosemu freedos xdosemu $ ls -l /home/jmccarty/bin/dosemudir/dosemu/xdosemu lrwxrwxrwx 1 jmccarty jmccarty 6 Feb 24 2005 /home/jmccarty/bin/dosemudir/dosemu/xdosemu -> dosemu $ dosemu $ But no new X window starts up. Yet... $ ps -A | grep dosemu 8854 pts/1 00:00:05 dosemu.bin $ kill 8854 $ ps -A | grep dosemu 8854 pts/1 00:00:48 dosemu.bin [wait a minute or so] $ ps -A | grep dosemu 8854 pts/1 00:02:04 dosemu.bin Hmm, won't kill... $ kill -9 8854 $ ps -A | grep dosemu $ Hmm... $ cd $ rm -rf .dosemu $ cd bin $ mv dosemudir dosemudir.old $ mkdir dosemudir $ cd dosemudir $ cp -p ../dosemudir.old/dosemu-freedos-b9r5-bin.tgz . $ cp -p ../dosemudir.old/dosemu-1.2.2-bin.tgz . $ tar xzf dosemu-freedos-b9r5-bin.tgz $ tar xzf dosemu-1.2.2-bin.tgz $ ls dosemu dosemu-1.2.2-bin.tgz dosemu-freedos-b9r5-bin.tgz $ ls bin conf COPYING dosemu FDchange.log freedos README.bindist xdosemu Xfonts $ ./dosemu Creating symbolic link for bootdirectory as /home/jmccarty/.dosemu/drives/c DOSEMU will run on _this_ terminal. To exit you need to execute 'exitemu' from within DOS, because -C and 'exit' won't work! Note that DOS needs 25 lines. You might want to enlarge your window before continuing.
